Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Maryland, most of our customers book this bundle in spring and fall, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Priced by stories, not by a visit. The bundle costs less than two trips, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Professional window cleaning and gutter work are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a bundle booked as one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from those two things, not from a formula we apply later.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof the crew cannot walk adds time and equipment. Window washing takes longer on multi-story buildings and when there are oversized panes or a lot of picture windows. Gutters that have not been opened in years arrive with packed grit, and clogged gutters take more hand work than a run cleared every season. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a different job, because no cleaning removes it, and the crew flags it on the first visit.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Windows inside are not included in this price. Clean glass and gutters also do more for curb appeal than most people expect. If a run shows water damage behind the fascia, the crew photographs it and reports it, and we do not add a repair to the invoice. For a number you can trust, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house with the stories and a rough window count. Many window cleaners quote the glass alone, so ask for the gutters in the same number. We have cleaned homes like this in Flower Hill, and one house with a steep roof and a long back run came in higher than its neighbors because the gutters had not been cleared in several years and needed two passes. Its quote was set from the stories, the window count and what the crew found in the gutters, and the invoice matched the quote.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
For context, nationally. Angi puts the average US gutter cleaning at $168, most homeowners paying $119 to $234 (Angi, 2026). Exterior-only window cleaning runs roughly $4 to $10 per window, or $100 to $250 for a typical home, with $3 to $5 per window more on upper stories (Angi, HomeGuide, via Google AI Overview, Oct 2026). Priced by stories, the most common model, a two-story gutter cleaning sits around $150 to $300 nationally. If a quote you are holding sits far outside these, ask what is driving it.
On every house we work, the first scoop out of a gutter ends up on the wall below it. We put the glass last so it ends up there once.
Gutters first, glass last. That is the order on every job our crew does, and it is the reason we book both with one crew instead of sending two.
What we see from the ladder. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water that sits under them come down the wall and across any window below it. Flushing a downspout throws more of it, in a stream, onto the panes beside the outlet. If the glass was washed first, someone has to wash them again before we are off the ladder. So we do the roof blow-off, clear the gutters, flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. The panes under the downspout outlets are the last ones we touch on the house.
Two things we do differently from a window-only crew. We rinse the siding under each run before we move to the glass, so nothing left on the wall washes down onto it in the first rain. And we do the top-floor glass from the same ladder position as the gutter run, one setup per side of the house, which is where the bundle saving comes from: no second trip, no second setup.
Downspouts flushed, screens rinsed, sills wiped, bags hauled. None of it shows up as a line item.
Gutters. Roof blow-off where debris sits above the gutter line. Every run hand-cleared, not just the visible stretch from the ground. Every downspout flushed with water until it runs clear, and a blocked one cleared on the spot where it can be reached from above. A downspout that feeds a buried drain line is checked at the outlet; clearing the buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it. Debris bagged and taken away. Before-and-after photos of each run, sent to you before the crew leaves.
Windows, exterior only. Every reachable pane on the outside of the house, cleaned with a water-fed pole and purified water so the glass dries without streaks or towel lint. Frames wiped. Screens taken down, hand-rinsed and put back on request. Sills wiped. Upper-story windows done from the pole, not from a ladder leaned on the siding.
Not included, and we say so up front. Interior glass. Hard-water or sprinkler staining etched into the glass, which needs a separate mineral treatment and is quoted after the crew sees it. Post-construction paint, stickers or stucco. Skylights and solar panels. Pressure washing of siding, decks or driveways. Gutter guards: if a run is covered, lifting and reseating the guard adds time and is quoted by the foot before the visit, never on the day.
Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.
Most residential properties we clean here book our cleaning services twice a year, for both gutters and every window on the outside, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. The spring visit lands in mid to late May, and the fall visit runs from November to early December. Across Maryland, the same spring and fall pattern holds, with summer thunderstorms and derechos moving dates when they hit.
On our Flower Hill jobs, the spring visit finds a pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste in the gutter elbows. The fall visit finds the leaf load, which is the wet mat that sags runs under ice when it is left over the winter. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction gets a third visit, because needles, grit and spray build up between the usual cleanings.
A homeowner on twice a year with no trees and no sprinkler spotting keeps every residential window ahead of the season, and the gutters with it. A customer under trees, or with spots that come back a day after cleaning, runs three or four visits a year to keep the runs flowing. Windows need cleaning when you notice a haze only when the sun is low, and clean windows hold up longer when you schedule service before that haze builds. Gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout.
Most two-story homes are done in a morning. You do not need to be there, and you get the photos either way.
The crew calls the day before with a two-hour arrival window, and again when they are on the way.
How long. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical house. Exterior windows on the same house run about the same again or a little more, so plan on a morning for a two-story home and most of a day for three stories or a house with a lot of glass. Gutters that have not been touched in years, steep roofs and wraparound porches run longer.
Before the crew arrives. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, so the glass is dry and the ground is not mud. Move cars off the driveway if windows face it. Keep pets inside while ladders are up. Unlock side gates. Nothing else; the crew brings its own water and power.
While they work. Gutters first, glass last, as described above. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. If something cannot be reached safely (a pane over a sunroom roof, a gutter run behind a tree limb) the crew photographs it and tells you rather than guessing.
After. Photos of every gutter run and the finished glass, sent by text or email before the crew leaves. The invoice matches the number quoted on the phone.
Send a photo and we tell you what it is. No argument about whether it rained.
Streaks. Purified water dries clean; a streak means something was missed, and that is on us. Send us a photo of it and we tell you what it is.
Spots that come back. Round white spots that return a day after cleaning are mineral deposits from sprinklers or hard water etched into the glass, not dirt. Cleaning cannot remove them; a mineral treatment can. The crew flags it on the visit so you are not surprised.
Rain the next day. Rain is distilled water and does not dirty clean glass by itself; what spots glass after rain is dust already on the frame or screen washing down. That is why frames and screens are done, not just the pane. If it looks worse after a storm, send the photo and we look at it.
Overflow after a cleaning. If a gutter runs clean and still sheets water over the edge in the next rain, the cause is slope, a sagging hanger or an undersized downspout, not debris. The crew notes what it saw and tells you; cleaning it again will not fix it, and we will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Your house. Ladder stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip or dents the siding. Screens go back in the window they came out of.
Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.
Our crew works across Flower Hill, and we have cleaned older houses, newer builds and condos in the city. Booking starts with a quote by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the calendar, and the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen stretch and the fall leaf drop, fill first. Book early in those months and the slot holds.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we call before we come so you know the arrival window. Exterior glass and gutters are cleaned from ladders and a water-fed pole, and the crew moves cars and gates only if you have asked us to. Washing services for exterior glass, gutters and downspouts run on the same visit as our window cleaning services, and the crew hauls away the grime, runoff and debris rather than blowing it onto the lawn. Our remove dirt step is the last pass on each side of the house, so nothing left on the wall is left behind when we go.
Yes. Our crew does both for residential and commercial properties, and it is the same two people on the ladder for the gutters and the outside of the glass in one visit. Gutters go first, then the glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Text a photo of the front and we will tell you the number before you book.
On our Flower Hill jobs, the outside carries the pollen film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those build up between visits whether the inside is clean or not. Interior and exterior glass pick up dirt at different rates, and cleaning the outside is what clears the view.
Our Flower Hill customers book in mid to late May and again from November into early December, from what we see on the jobs. Regular cleanings fill the calendar in those months, so book early.
No, because gutters go first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so the glass is washed only after the gutters and downspouts are done.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and we clean every window on the exterior side with purified water, using cleaning solutions only on frames that need them. Those are not billed as extras.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
